Diet, nutrition, and hormone therapy for prostate cancer: a systematic review with implications for future interventions.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundGiven excellent prostate cancer outcomes, comorbidity management is critical to survivorship. While hormone therapy or androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a mainstay of treatment, they can negatively impact quality of life and survivorship through cardiovascular, sexual, and metabolic effects. ADT-induced metabolic syndrome causes impaired glucose tolerance, muscle mass loss, and weight gain. This systematic review examined recent randomized clinical trials (RCTs) investigating the impact of diet and weight management strategies on mitigating ADT-related adverse effects.
methodsA systematic review of RCTs (2015-2025) was performed using PubMed/Embase following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. To identify how diet and weight management impacts ADT symptoms, search terms included: "prostate cancer," "diet," "nutrition," "glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists" (GLP-1RA), and "ADT." Risk of Bias 2 (ROB2) and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) tools evaluated RCT quality.
resultsOf 2799 publications, 16 met inclusion/exclusion criteria (range, 23-96 patients/RCT). No RCTs had a high risk of bias or evaluated GLP-1RA. Outcomes included metabolic labs, body composition, and quality of life. Mediterranean and low-carbohydrate diets with exercise reduced cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, with variable durability. Creatine trended toward increasing lean muscle mass. Multidisciplinary care and community involvement improved accountability and outcome durability.
conclusionsThis comprehensive review of diet and ADT in prostate cancer identified nutritional interventions that were safe, feasible, and may be recommended as part of prostate cancer treatment and survivorship. Future RCTs should evaluate optimal diet duration, longer follow-up, multidisciplinary patient support, and novel anti-metabolic therapies like GLP-1RA.
